This ensured that data could be interrogated in a meaningful way, at regular intervals, with the people who mattered.&lt;\/p&gt;\t\t\t&lt;h2&gt;Project outcome.&lt;\/h2&gt;\t\t&lt;p&gt;Since 2017, the monitoring has remained fully operational in various guises and has supported key phases of the development.\u00a0&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This has included multiple periods of piling and excavation, including excavation immediately adjacent to the new underground station box. This has ensured that the project has hit key milestones over the years and will continue to do so for many years to come.&lt;\/p&gt;\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&lt;a data-elementor-open-lightbox=&quot;yes&quot; data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=&quot;7e29678&quot; data-elementor-lightbox-title=&quot;IMG_1255 (1)&quot; data-e-action-hash=&quot;#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTkxNTUsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9wbG93bWFuY3JhdmVuLmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNlwvMDdcL0lNR18xMjU1LTEtc2NhbGVkLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjdlMjk2NzgifQ%3D%3D&quot; href=&quot;https:\/\/plowmancraven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_1255-1-scaled.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;figure&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https:\/\/plowmancraven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_1255-1-1536x2048.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_1255 (1)&quot; \/&gt;&lt;\/figure&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;a data-elementor-open-lightbox=&quot;yes&quot; data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=&quot;7e29678&quot; data-elementor-lightbox-title=&quot;IMG_0915 (1)&quot; data-e-action-hash=&quot;#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTkxNTQsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9wbG93bWFuY3JhdmVuLmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNlwvMDdcL0lNR18wOTE1LTEtc2NhbGVkLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjdlMjk2NzgifQ%3D%3D&quot; href=&quot;https:\/\/plowmancraven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_0915-1-scaled.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;figure&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https:\/\/plowmancraven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_0915-1-2048x1536.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_0915 (1)&quot; \/&gt;&lt;\/figure&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;a data-elementor-open-lightbox=&quot;yes&quot; data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=&quot;7e29678&quot; data-elementor-lightbox-title=&quot;Battersea Power Station&quot; data-e-action-hash=&quot;#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTkxNTMsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9wbG93bWFuY3JhdmVuLmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNlwvMDdcL0lNR182ODcwLTItc2NhbGVkLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjdlMjk2NzgifQ%3D%3D&quot; href=&quot;https:\/\/plowmancraven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6870-2-scaled.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;figure&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https:\/\/plowmancraven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6870-2-1536x2048.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Battersea Power Station&quot; \/&gt;&lt;\/figure&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&lt;h2&gt;Want to see more of our work?&lt;\/h2&gt;\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&lt;a href=&quot;https:\/\/plowmancraven.com\/work-impact\/&quot;&gt;\n\t\t\t\t&lt;svg aria-hidden=&quot;true&quot; viewBox=&quot;0 0 320 512&quot; xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot;&gt;&lt;path d=&quot;M285.476 272.971L91.132 467.314c-9.373 9.373-24.569 9.373-33.941 0l-22.667-22.667c-9.357-9.357-9.375-24.522-.04-33.901L188.505 256 34.484 101.255c-9.335-9.379-9.317-24.544.04-33.901l22.667-22.667c9.373-9.373 24.569-9.373 33.941 0L285.475 239.03c9.373 9.372 9.373 24.568.001 33.941z&quot;&gt;&lt;\/path&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tView all projects\n\t\t\t\t\t&lt;\/a&gt;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&lt;h2&gt;Know more.
